Apache Iceberg, Delta Lake, Hudi and medallion architecture: how modern lakehouses work, how they compare, and how to run them well.
Your table can only be sorted one way, but your users filter it many ways. See how Z-order and Hilbert curves solve that, square by square with 24 orders and one map, why Hilbert opened up to 39% fewer files in a million-row test, and how to use it in Apache Iceberg.
By the end of this read, you’ll understand why Apache Iceberg is not just another open table format — it’s the seismic shift that’s redefining the role of Delta Lake in the modern data ecosystem and transform how the world thinks about data lakes. From Data Lakes to Data Icebergs: A New Era Begins Over … Read more
The Era of Chaos – and Snowflake’s Rise Back in 2017, most of us were drowning in messy data. Files were everywhere in S3 buckets, Hadoop jobs kept failing at the worst times, and analysts? They were always chasing clean data that never seemed to arrive when needed. It was frustrating, and honestly, it felt … Read more
